JavaScriptpohjaiset

JavaScriptpohjaiset is a Finnish term used to describe software, components, or projects that are built primarily with JavaScript or rely on the JavaScript runtime. The phrase is common in Finnish technical writing and documentation to distinguish JavaScript-based solutions from those implemented in other languages.

Typically it refers to client-side applications running in web browsers, server-side software running on a JavaScript engine such as Node.js, and cross-platform desktop or mobile apps built with frameworks like Electron, React Native, or similar. In practice, a project described as JavaScriptpohjainen uses JavaScript as its main programming language, and its tooling—package managers, bundlers, and test frameworks—revolves around the JavaScript ecosystem, such as npm or yarn, Webpack or Vite, and Jest or Vitest.

JavaScriptpohjaiset projects often integrate or coexist with languages that compile to JavaScript, notably TypeScript. In such cases, teams may still label the project as JavaScript-based because the runtime and most code ultimately execute as JavaScript. The term emphasizes the runtime environment and language core rather than the specific platform, enabling cross-domain discussion of front-end, back-end, and desktop solutions.
